Ooh that sounds lovely dove. Would that all work in sunken pots? I never thought of ferns. And i love cyclamen. Whats the difference between the two types of cyclamen?
Cyclamen hederifolium is the easier of the 2 as it is less fussy, but I find both are OK. The Hydrangea can be a bit slow getting established on a wall, maybe a couple of years, but then takes off. An old plant grows 2 -3' a year but you can cut it back each year in the middle of summer to where you want it to stop and still get flowers for the next year. It is a tree climber naturally and can go well up mature trees without pruning. I stopped mine after many years at the height I could reach with my ladder. The perfume is wonderful.
